Humility: "Becoming as Little Children"

We are like little children of God?
God is our father in heaven. We are his children in spirit and here on Earth we are supposed to be humble to our Lord and savior like a small child is to his father.

How will the Lord help us receive the blessings he has promised?
The Lord has promised us that even though we cannot bear all things that he will lead us along the way. He has promised us over and over that we can have the riches of eternity, and all he asks is that we become as little children.
Most of the time the blessings seem far away, distant and out of reach. I think that an eagerness to achieve those things is childlike as well. Children want what they want, and regardless of deterrents they will not change their minds. 


How do we become as little children?
We must be submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him. 
A lot of times we hear these things and they have become so typical to hear that we forget their true meaning. It is about a general attitude of humility, and being able to listen. To truly listen and comprehend we have to be able to listen and be willing to adhere to those things.
